Iran's Ghalibaf:

Lebanon and Iran’s allied groups are formally included in the ceasefire framework.

Pakistan’s PM Shehbaz Sharif publicly reinforced that this position is firm and non-negotiable.

Ceasefire violations carry explicit costs and STRONG responses.

Extinguish the fire immediately.

Q: Do you agree that NATO countries, some of them, were tested and failed?

Mark Rutte: Some of them, yes...

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian:

The repeated aggression by the Zionist entity against Lebanon is a flagrant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement and a dangerous indicator of deceit and lack of commitment to potential accords.

The continuation of these aggressions will render negotiations meaningless; our hands will remain on the trigger, and Iran will never abandon its Lebanese brothers and sisters.

A Pakistani source said Pakistan is working on potential ceasefires for Lebanon and Yemen:

It will ⁠be discussed during the (upcoming) talks and we will settle it.

CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper:

Iran has suffered a generational military defeat.

France has officially dropped funding for the multinational Eurodrone program in its updated 2024–2030 military spending plan, effectively ending its participation.

The decision follows years of delays, rising costs, and concerns that the large, twin-engine MALE drone is too expensive and vulnerable for modern high-intensity warfare.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

Hezbollah, the terrorist organization, is pleading for a ceasefire, and its Iranian patrons are also pressuring and threatening—out of serious fear that Israel will crush Hezbollah.

The IDF is prepared and ready to act with force if Iran fires toward Israel.

Trump:

German Chancellor Merz:

We are now resuming talks with Tehran.

We are doing this in coordination with the United States and our European partners.

Iran’s Deputy FM Saeed Khatibzadeh:

We were on the verge of responding to a grave violation.

Pakistan intervened and conveyed messages that helped prevent further escalation.

The United States must choose between war and ceasefire — it cannot have both.

German Chancellor Merz:

We do not want a division of NATO.

NATO is a guarantor of our security, especially in Europe.

German Chancellor Merz:

Oil prices could rise again compared to February levels.

German Chancellor Merz:

We did not discuss any withdrawal of U.S. soldiers, nor any restriction on the use of military infrastructure maintained by the American armed forces in Germany.

There are stationing agreements in place, and the federal government has no reason to doubt that the American forces have acted within the framework of these agreements in recent weeks.

German Chancellor Merz:

I believe Trump himself did not assume that a country like Iran could be completely wiped out.

In my firm conviction, that would not have happened. It was part of his strategy in dealing with Iran.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran negotiations:

It is essential to act with common sense against any known attempts to sabotage the Israeli negotiation process.

In particular, the international community must remain alert to potential acts of sabotage by Israel and be prepared to respond appropriately.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

At this stage, it is clear that Syria must be kept away from the negative repercussions of the crisis in our region.

The intensive diplomatic engagement we have recently carried out with Syria is fundamentally aimed at this objective.

Survivors of the deadly Iranian drone strike in Kuwait are challenging the Pentagon’s version of events, saying their unit “was unprepared” and not properly protected.

One injured soldier rejected the official account, stating: “Painting a picture that ‘one squeaked through’ is a falsehood… the unit was unprepared to provide any defense for itself. It was not a fortified position.”

Troops described being stationed at a lightly protected site despite knowing it was a potential target: “We moved closer to Iran, to a deeply unsafe area that was a known target… I don’t think there was a good reason ever articulated.”

Some believe the attack could have been avoided. “Telling the truth is important… we’re not going to learn from these mistakes if we pretend these mistakes didn’t happen,” one said, adding the strike was “absolutely” preventable.
